Ryokans in Minamisaku District

"People are very nice. Foods, Onsen, and fish in the pond are nice."

"A really old-fashioned Japanese onsen experience like nothing else. We ate in the Japanese restaurant one night and French the other evening. The food was fantastic. Rooms were comfortable but old fashioned. I would highly recommend the room with a private onsen - we saw tanuke (Japanese raccoon dogs) approach whilst we were bathing which was a really special experience. We hiked to the ridge (5 hours return) through a beautiful forest."

"They don't speak much English but tried their best to communicate via Google translate, very helpful and friendly service."

"Beautiful hotel lobby and very friendly staff. Location can be a challenge to get to if the roads are snowy. 4WD / snow tire or chains a must in winter. "

"スタッフは皆すばらしい。館内は良く清掃されている。食事も美味しい。露天風呂からの眺望もよく、ゆっくり入れる。"

"The perfect Ryokan! I will return! "

"This place was the highlight of our trip. The grounds and place is picturesque and the service amazing. Would love to go back here again"

"Nice staff👍 Not close to Karuizawa station but it is good for a night stay👍👍 Took ard 15-20 mins by bus to the hotel."

"Really enjoyed our short stay and visiting this area. Walkable distance from the station and lake. A full Japanese-style breakfast was beautifully presented with some alternatives also on offer - fruit, eggs, bacon etc. We visited in May when the hotel and Suwa generally were very quiet so we were able to enjoy the hotel facilitie - the modern reception area and onsen. Good size room with twin beds. Go for one with a lake view if possible."

"Step away from Tokyo, it is only an hour. Enjoy the quiet of Japan! "

"onsen roundtrip was awesome"
